Hi,

"delgroup" doesnt delete a user from a group, it complains that the group is
the users primary group, which is not true:

# delgroup dummy testgroup
delgroup: can't remove primary group of user dummy

# delgroup dummy users
delgroup: can't remove primary group of user dummy

The same happens if the user has its own group, created by default at user
creation time:

# adduser xpto
# addgroup xpto testgroup
# id xpto
  uid=1002(xpto) gid=1002(xpto) groups=1002(xpto),1001(testgroup)
# tail -2 /etc/group
  testgroup:x:1001:dummy,xpto
  xpto:x:1002:
# tail -1 /etc/passwd
  xpto:x:1002:1002:Linux User,,,:/home/xpto:/bin/sh
# delgroup xpto xpto
  delgroup: can't remove primary group of user xpto
# delgroup xpto testgroup
  delgroup: can't remove primary group of user xpto

relevant (?) busybox configuration:

# grep GROUP .config
CONFIG_FEATURE_FIND_GROUP=y
CONFIG_ADDGROUP=y
# CONFIG_FEATURE_ADDGROUP_LONG_OPTIONS is not set
CONFIG_FEATURE_ADDUSER_TO_GROUP=y
CONFIG_DELGROUP=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_DEL_USER_FROM_GROUP=y

cross compiled with arm-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.3.3

Thanks for busybox!
Joao
